Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

Built in 1974, this property has undergone significant and recent updates, particularly in the ADU and main bathroom, making it move-in ready. The ADU features a modern kitchenette with white shaker cabinets, wood-look countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with a fully updated bathroom with a floating vanity and tiled shower. The main cabin's kitchen has modern white solid-surface countertops, an undermount sink, and a contemporary faucet, though the cabinets appear to be older painted units and the built-in oven/range is vintage. The main bathroom also boasts a modern floating vanity, updated lighting, and fixtures. While the main kitchen appliances are older and the property's core structure is 50 years old, the extensive cosmetic renovations throughout, especially in the ADU and bathrooms, elevate its condition beyond 'Fair'. The property is well-maintained with functional systems, aligning with a 'Good' rating, though not 'Excellent' due to its age and some un-updated components.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7700, living area = 1568.

  • Prime Location & Accessibility

    Exceptional walk and drive score, offering easy access to the National Forest (0.3 miles), the lake (1.7 miles), and year-round attractions like the Convention Center, Stanfield Marsh, and Big Bear Snow Play within approximately 1 mile.

  • Income-Generating ADU

    Features a spacious Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) above the garage with an updated kitchenette, dining area, bedroom, and bathroom, providing significant rental income potential or flexible living arrangements.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1568, other record living area = 1368. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.

  • Age of Property & Potential System Updates

    Built in 1974, the property may have original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that could require future maintenance or updates, which are not explicitly detailed as having been addressed.

  • Absence of Central Air Conditioning

    While equipped with a wood-burning stove for heating, there is no mention of a central air conditioning system, which could be a consideration for comfort during warmer months or for rental appeal.
